I dont disagree that it is over in many places. My wife’s hospital hasn’t had a single case in over a week.

But, this is also spreading across the country. What is going on in TX and FL is what was happening in the Northeast in April/May.

I am kind of surprised how the media, and lots of otherwise bright people, are missing that point. We are not a single geographic location like, say, Belgium. We are a big country. Its not going to hit everywhere all at once.

We are chasing that which cannot be done. Stopping a virus from spreading is an impossible task, and dare I say, ignorant.

All virus act the same, they ramp up, those at risk die, those left provide immunity. Check the deaths to time curve for any virus and it will be very similar. Once you get past the top of the curve it is downhill to immunity.

You may desire to “flatten the curve” but that does nothing more than prolong it a bit. The virus will move through the population until it can no longer find a host. Trying to stop a virus, outside of immunity, is a fools errand. One that we are all feeling right now.

Btw, none of this is directed at you personally, just throwing the info out there.
